Exterior - Outside St. Michael's Church - Moments Later

Woo-jin walks away from the church, still trying to process the whirlwind that was Min-ji. He's heading to his car when Min-ji's phone buzzes in her hand. She glances at the screen and sees that it's her best friend, **Jisoo**. Min-ji takes a deep breath, steps into a quieter corner near the church, and answers the call.

**Min-ji**: (whispering) "Jisoo, you won't believe what just happened."

**Jisoo**: (excitedly) "Did he run away? Tell me he ran away like we planned!"

Min-ji rolls her eyes, leaning against the wall.

**Min-ji**: (exasperated) "I did everything-dressed like a rebel, flirted with him in the middle of the church, called him 'baby' during the prayer-everything! But guess what?"

**Jisoo**: (curious) "What? Don't tell me he actually liked it!"

**Min-ji**: (sighing) "He didn't run away! He was flustered, sure, but he just kept his cool, stayed polite, and said something about 'respecting the sacred place' and 'guiding me to the right path over time.' Can you believe that?"

Jisoo bursts out laughing on the other end of the line.

**Jisoo**: (laughing) "Oh my gosh, Min-ji! This guy's either a saint or completely clueless! You must've really gotten under his skin!"

**Min-ji**: (grinning) "It was like he was trying so hard not to offend me, but also trying to stay true to his holy image. He didn't even blink when I called him 'hot' in front of those old church ladies!"

**Jisoo**: (teasing) "He sounds too pure for his own good. So, what's next? Are you going to keep pushing him until he cracks?"

**Min-ji**: (smirking) "Oh, you bet. I'm not giving up just yet. I'll keep turning up the heat until he either breaks or begs his parents to call this whole thing off."

**Jisoo**: (laughing) "That's the spirit! Just remember, the goal is to make *him* call it off. So keep being your wild, modern self and see how long it takes before he can't handle it anymore."

Min-ji chuckles, feeling a renewed sense of determination.

**Min-ji**: "Thanks, Jisoo. I needed that pep talk. If this doesn't work, I might just end up married to the most pious guy in Korea!"

**Jisoo**: (teasing) "Hey, at least you'll be the talk of the town. But seriously, if he hasn't run away yet, he must be stronger than he looks. Good luck with your next move!"

**Min-ji**: (grinning) "Thanks. I'm going to need it."

They both hang up, and Min-ji glances back at the church, her mind already racing with new ideas to test Woo-jin's patience. As she heads towards her car, a mischievous smile spreads across her face.

Next Day

Exterior - Cozy Cafe - Late Afternoon

Woo-jin arrives at the cozy cafe, looking around for Min-ji. He spots her sitting at a table, her smile a mix of mischievous excitement and sweetness.

**Woo-jin**: (approaching) "Min-ji, I'm here. Ready for our coffee date?"

**Min-ji**: (standing up with a sly grin) "Oh, I'm so glad you came! But I thought it would be fun to mix things up a bit. How about we head out for something a little... more exciting?"

Woo-jin looks puzzled but nods, intrigued. They leave the cafe, and Min-ji guides him down the street. They turn into a narrow alley, and Woo-jin's confusion grows. The sounds of loud music and flashing lights start to seep through the walls of a nearby club.
